Materials Recovery

Closed loops are about turning the materials recovered from one type of product back into the same type of product. There are also many commodity loops that, while not strictly “closed”, provide similar environmental benefits.

Through 11 years of experience, knowledge and extensive R&D, Close the Loop has developed technologies to recycle printer consumables and plastic streams. Find out about the resources we recover and what happens to them.

It takes a lot of energy to make new plastics and metals. When they are recycled, some of this “embodied energy” is recovered. The less energy it takes to make something, the lower its carbon emissions. How much carbon has Close the Loop kept out of the atmosphere? Find out here.
